Homebrew RELEASE Development Thread - RetroArch libnx

[KTroopA]

Am I correct in assuming that Snes9x2010 currently works on 5.0.2 and not updated yet to work on 5.1.0 firmware? Im currently on 4.1.0 and wanted to run homebrew but seems no way to get 5.0.2?

You can update to 5.1.0 perfectly fine and still be able to run homebrew and most apps that worked before, Sx2010 also works on this FW version as well as 5.0.2.

If you specifically want the 5.0.2 version you then need to acquire a physical game cartridge that is on 5.0.2 (See game cartridge FW thread)

Phenomenal news guys and gals for the 3do emulator, I yolo'd it and used the retroarch config from yabuse and we have joystick controls! Ill repost everything right now with the working config. All you gotta do is put the bios bin in the 4do folder with the .nro and link it ( Settings>Directory>System/BIOS>find your .bin ) I tried to link the system bios in the .cfg but its not working. Everything else should be 100% working though!

edit:
This emulator is running at 100% speed the only issues with it are sound which is a general issue

Games run full speed
but no controls @coppertj

Hey, im on 4.1.0 and the latest VBA-Next just works fine. But somehow i cant load a game on the latest snes9x 2010. it freezes when i try to load a game.

Any suggestions?

Edit:

Also how can i change the screen orientation on the mame2003 core?

thank you!

 

[TimeDevouncer]

I'm trying the virtual boy core, i don't know how can i change the colors (red to gray).

Wario Land (great game!!) works, but the sound crash (5.0.2)

Sorry for my bad english.

Where do I have to put the roms? I got the SNES Emulator running, but it cannot detect any roms and when I want to scan for them in the directory, it just freezes...I git .smc files for SNES and .gba files for Gameboy Advanced.

Just drop then in with the nro, you literally have to select the folder and find it, load content, used the first selection, then to the folder your nro is in, then select rom. Currently I don't think that way if rom loading is supported.

That's strange do you have the retroarch.cfg with it in the 4DO folder? Controls are working fine on mine, was able to play wolfenstein 3D.

Still same audio issues as the non threaded build. But fullscreen.


Threaded builds + fullscreen (untested, still building. Might need cfg adjustments or delete, you know the drill):

Edit: VBA seems to run rather well!
Docked ofc bugged, cfg works

Thank you works a dream! Mario World has never been so playable.

You guys REALLY need to stop using my debug builds.
These are for DEBUG, not to play......
Use the latest core from the main post (x2010), the VBA core is only a debug version avaiable, but the snes9x2010 is stable

any updates to virtualjaguar yet? Thanks.

Controls run well in rgui but in game no
yes i have retroarch.cfg in 4DO folder
Can you upload your retroarch.cfg?? @coppertj

 

[m4xw]

any updates to virtualjaguar yet? Thanks.

The main post does ALWAYS contain the newest core versions.
Else you gotta be more specific.

Loading and saving a state in snes and gba emulator wont work, is that possible? If I press R or L nothing happens. If I go to the menu and try it from there (by pressing L3 and R3) it wont work too.

 

[Duhasst0]

My Vive is ready (and a bit dusty!)
Only need vulkan and ue4 on the switch



Take a look https://git.m4xw.net/Switch/RetroArch/libretro-snes9x2010/-/jobs/493/artifacts/download

Should work docked btw (non threading build)

Edit: And now no more bitching till I am done! 3am here.. just finishing my beer lol

So you know I ran this guy, i like the full screen but don't like the feeling of it. Personal gripe, but we will get there.
I also had my previous save show up from the build i used yesterday before 5pm EST, loaded fine. + and - don't
bring me back to the retroarch menu so had to use the home key to exit. did not try it docked....

Is it just save states that are not working for you? Game save data works just great fyi.

They work just fine, wait at least a minute.

@coppertj I can't keep on saying it over and over again, but I need a solution to these problems:

lol Pebble Beach Golf Links didn't load for me on 4DO
The BIOS file did, though, although no surprise it demanded for a disc.

Update: it's not just Pebble Beach Golf Links that freezes on a black screen on 4DO.
I've tried two other 3DO games (FIFA International Soccer and Need for Speed) and they don't work either, only the BIOS loads, even when I'm using the stock retroarch.cfg file provided by @coppertj, or when I have threading turned on (which I doubt it supports by the way). Also, I'm on 4.1.0.

Game saves are working great! Sound and acceleration too.

So save a state, press on reload and wait a minute to load it? Thanks for the great development!
